While Minos was moving at high speed toward where he should find his group in no more than an hour, Kendrick and his companions found themselves in a tricky situation not long after he had used his powers for the last time.
Thinking they had escaped from the two level 111 individuals, their group would come across a group of 5 level 110 Sovereigns after only 45 minutes on the run.
The first two members of the group to use the sacrifice of their Flashdrain parasites were fighting, both temporarily at the peak of level 109, the maximum their parasites could take them.
Ruth was putting her innate ability to good use, trying her best to help those two fighting the five opponents in the patch of forest they were now in.
Her remaining companions were in position, surrounding Kendrick, Grisdi and the two Stuart sisters, the weakest of the group at the moment, eyeing their surroundings with anticipation.
